Joy and Sorrow: The Paradox of Madama Butterfly

[mapleguy]

Last night LH and I went to see Madama Butterfly. Admittedly one of my fave operas (well the aria is anyways). It was what I imagined it would be. Simple and haunting and beautiful.

We were very high up and for the first time, we did not luck out with our tickets. If I did not mention before when we went to see the The 25th Annual Putnam Spelling

The story of Madama Butterfly is so sad ç_ç beautiful, but sad! Really sad for the poor girl! ç___ç

Yes

it was sad and at the same time it brought up past memories of past hurt. I admit I was misty-eyed at times especially near the end.

I love puccini and I like opera.

Hope u are well :d
